However,...Thanks for your comment, and for reading. However, I have to tell you that I find what you are saying to be extremely evasive of all the arguments in this article. When something good happens, you say it&#39;s God. When something bad happens, you say it&#39;s not God. Even as a child, I would find this kind of reasoning suspicious.<br /><br />But even if I was to grant your point; it&#39;s still not so simple, because the Bible claims that this God is all powerful. It&#39;s one thing to be completely convinced of God&#39;s existence but another to say that all the dying people are just part of God&#39;s plan.<br /><br />Is the God you worship rewarding you for plain gullibility or for logical reasoning based on facts? You must have some intellectual integrity and face the music, no double-standards, no evasive logic. My question to you is this: Is God completely powerless or is he letting these things happen?<br /><br />Obviously, you are not going to say he is powerless; then why is he letting these things happen? You see, to believe in God, you have to make up all kinds of complicated excuses to justify God&#39;s strange and unfair behavior. It would be a lot simpler to just admit that he doesn&#39;t SEEM to exist. Are you so affraid of your own doubts to admit this?Psyencehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12364384110531146273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5525827879646286556.post-83795112067725822122012-02-19T22:02:54.029-05:002012-02-19T22:02:54.029-05:00I read this and all I can say is that I am deeply ...I read this and all I can say is that I am deeply saddened by your thoughts. First of all, God is good and ALL good things come from the Lord. The ugliness, evil, ignorance, and sadness in this world is nothing short of sin and sin alone. I think the best thing you can do for yourself is read the Bible and start praying for wisdom and knowledge.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5525827879646286556.post-88139787758998128762011-12-16T22:52:59.252-05:002011-12-16T22:52:59.252-05:00Interesting, it just reminds of an article I red a...Interesting, it just reminds of an article I red a year ago, about, earthquakes, moral and prayer: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1267262/Iranian-cleric-Women-wear-revealing-clothing-cause-earthquakes.htmledemkahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00197900812863907578noreply@blogger.com
